THE TENNEY FAMILY-
Our English Home.
Our English home was Rowley on the Yorkshu-e Wolds, in the
East Riding (a Saxon word signifying third) of the County of
Yorkshire, England. It is situated near the great waterway, the
river Humber, an estuary of the German Ocean, and is six miles
from its south bank, twenty miles from Spum-Head-at-the-Sea, and
three hundred feet elevation above the sea. It is 53° 34^ north lati-
tude, 0° IC west Icfegitude, ten miles from the great commercial
port of Hull, which lies on the north bank of the river Humber, and
is the third port in England in size. It is six miles southwest of
Beverly, to which union of churches it belongs. In 1852 a letter
written by a lawyer residing near Rowley, England, gives the fol-
lowing description of the place :
" It is a hamlet containing about a dozen houses and some fifty or
sixty inhabitants who are engaged in agriculture. It has neither
trade nor institutions ; with two other hamlets Hunsley and Bentleyy
it constitutes a parish. It is delightfully situated on the top of
high hills called Yorkshire Wolds. It is noted as having a good
church preferment, the living being worth about fifteen hundred
pounds per year, and is almost a sinecure as to labor performed.
Hence the gift is sought by clergy who desire leisure and good pay.
It is said that Rev. Ezekiel Rogers was a leading divine in England
in his day, and held charge at Rowley. It was probably a more
important place in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries than now
relatively.
" The parish has five hamlets embracing 5,760 acres : Little Weton,
where the chief part of the inhabitants live ; Riplingham, Hunsley,
Bentley, and -Rowley, which has a church (St. Peter's) and a rec-
tory, but no inhabitants except the rector. Rev. Henry C. T. Hil-

yard and his family. He accepted the charge of the parish in 1852,
at which date the only church there, a very old, dilapidated struc-
ture, was restored by the rector on his going there to reside.
" The church is situated a few rods north of the road, one half
mile from the station on the Hull & Bamslay Railway, and about
thirty-one miles southeast of the old Roman capital, York."
In the summer of 1896 Mr. Willis R. Tenney VIII visited Row-
ley, and took a snap shot of the church which dates back five cen-
turies ; the tower is distinctly Norman ; a portion of the main build-
ing may date back a century earlier. In the church is an old stone
font of the twelfth century, and the workmanship is of much inter-
est. Mr. Tenney was taken about by the rector, Henry C. T. Hil-
yard, a well kept man, who died in September, 1898.
In 1638 Ezekiel Rogers and some twenty families of his parish-
ioners came over to New England. Their ship was the John of
London. Rev. Joseph Glover, the " Father of the American Press,"
was a fellow passenger, bringing the first printing-press ever shipped
to America. The good man " reached his port <>ef ore the ship made
land " ; but his press came, and is still preserved. (By J. L. Ewell,
JV. K Magazine, September, 1899, Vol. XXI, No. 1, page 9.) This
is corroborated by the best authority. The late Hiram Harriman, of
the Georgetown Advocate, informed me that he had carefully inves-
tigated the above-named matter and that he was satisfied the state-
ment was true.
I accepted it from him as true and believe it true. (George B.
Blodgette, Esq., historian of Rowley, Mass.)
Rev. Ezekiel Rogers was a man of learning, very devout, pos-
sessed of much zeal, and felt keenly the religious persecution of
King Charles' order to the clergy to read in church the declaration
of sports, in which the king directed that no hindrance should be
thrown in the way of those who wished to dance or shoot at the
butts (a target) on Sunday afternoon. Puritan Rogers, aggrieved at
this and other persecutions, gathered to him in the parish of Rowley
a company, Thomas Tenney and his wife, Ann, foimed one family,
for the purpose of emigrating to America, and succeeded in leaN-ing
England in the autumn of 1638. They arrived at Salem, Mass., in
December, 1638, where the company decided to remain during the
winter and seek a settlement. In April, 1639, the company were
joined by forty families, making sixty families.
GENEALOGY. 9
A settlement was made at Rowley, Mass.; the place was probably
selected on acconnt of its pleasantness, its nearness to the river, and
the abundance of thatch that grew upon the river banks. In colon-
izing they formed a community under the direction of their spiritual
leader, Rev. Mr. Rogers, known as the Rogers Plantation ; after-
wards, 4 Sept, 1639, the General Court ordered that the "planta-
tion shalbee called Rowley." (Mass. Colony Records, Vol. 1, p.
271.)
Generation.
I.
Thomas Tenney, a member of the Rev. Ezekiel Rogers' com-
pany from Yorkshire, England, arrived at Salem, Mass., in December,
1638, and settled at Rowley, Mass., in April, 1639. (Gage's Hist.
Rowley.) In a deposition taken at Ipswich, Mass., 4 May, 1680^
Mr. Tenney testifies in relation to an ox pasture in Rowley, and at
that date he gave his age as about sixty-six years. (Ipswich Deeds^
4 : 329.) This would have made him twenty-four years old when
he emigrated to America with his wife, Ann, who was mentioned in •
the will of Deacon Thomas Mighill, as sister "Ann Tenney "and
Faith Parrat, Sen., said will dated 11 June, 1654. Deacon Mighill
of Rowley, Mass., brought with him, wife Ellen, who was buried
12 July, 1640, and the first person buried there. He married (2) Ann
Parrat, sister to Francis Parrat, who brought with him, besides his
wife, Elizabeth, his sisters, Ann, who married Dea. Thomas Mighill,.
and Faith, who married John Smith, and (2) William Law (Early
Settlers of Rowley).
Mrs. Tenney was buried 26 Sept., 1657. He married 24 Feb.^
1658, his second wife, Elizabeth, widow of Francis Parrat of
Rowley.
It does not appear that they had children. Mrs. Elizabeth Ten-
ney received by bequest of Rev. Ezekiel Rogers £10 in 1660-1
(Essex Deeds, Ipswich, 168). In the will of Robert Hunter, viz.^
"to Thomas Tenney I give 10 s, dated 5, 6 mo., 1647 : proved 28, 7^
1647 (Ipswich Record, Vol. 1, leaf 25), Thomas Tenney, a witnesa
to the will of John Smith of Rowley, 13 July, 1661 : on file No.
22590, used only one e in Tenny."
A survey of the town of Rowley was ordered the 10 of the 11th
month, A. D., 1643 ; a committee of four freemen were appointed.
Freemen were members of the church, taxpayers, voters, cotdd hold
ofiice, and they only until 1664, when the law was abolished by the
General Court.
GENEALOGY. 11
In this survey of 1648 an acre-and-a-half house-lot on Holmea
street was registered to Thomas Tenney, ** bounded on the south
fflde by John Haseltine's house-lot, and the east end by the streete.'*
(Gage, 123.) It was bounded on the north side by the two-acre
house-lot of Robert Haseltine. This lot is now owned and occupied
by the Primes, having been purchased of Daniel Tenney by Mark
Prime in 1701, and has had a store thereon ever since. It is now
bounded on the south by the homestead of George B. Blodgette>
Esq. The house erected by Thomas Tenney, Senior, was torn
down by Captain Daniel N. Prime in 1838. "In a Survey of the
Several Gates or Commonages belonging vnto The Severall Inhabi-
tants of the Town of Rowley as They are now in possession," taken
4 February, 1661, are the following entries to Thomas Tenney and
his wife, Elizabeth : —

In 1667, by division of the Island marshes, he received land.
(Gage, 150-1.) In 1670, by division of Merrimack land, he re-
ceived land. (Gage, 847-8.) In a division of 1673-4 he received
land. (Gage, 138.) There was no settlement on the lot northwest
of Simon's Brook until after the day of Thomas Tenney, Senior.
(Blodgette.) This lot is one half mile east of Long Hill.
The town in Oct. 22, 1677, records style him ensign, marshal in
1653-66 ; wamer of town meetings, 1650-53-60-61-66 ; overseer of
plains, 1656-64-71 ; selectman, 1660-61-70 ; viewer of fences, high-
ways, and chimneys, 1669; constable, 1665-66; tithingman, 1680.

ten families. (Gage, p. 152.) Several records of intervening years are
lost, and there are no records of admission to the church for a period
of twenty-six years. The church record may have been lost in the
conflagration of Rev. Mr. Rogers' house. Thomas Tenney is in the

Mass., as seen by deed, viz. : " Thomas Tenney of Bradford (a gift)

Bradford, now in possession of John Wood, also three acres of
meadow at Crane Pond in Rowley, also six acres . . . also one

Dated 15 June, 1694. (Essex Deeds, 13 : 119.) He died in Brad-
ford 20 February, 1699-1700, and is buried in the Old Cemetery.
This old burying ground was used in the first settlement of the
town, and remained the only cemetery until 1723, when the East
parish (now the town of Groveland) burial-ground was opened.
The oldest stone now standing and decipherable bears the date
of 1^81. (L. A. Woodbury, Essex Antiquarian, Feb., 1901.)

Note. — Rowley, Mass., is situated thirty-two miles from Boston,
via Eastern Railroad, with a station about one mile eastward from
the village. It received its name from Rowley, Yorkshire, England,
where the Rev. Ezekiel Rogers and some of his people had lived.
It was incorporated the 4th of September, 1639, and then embraced
Bradford, Groveland, Georgetown, and Boxford. Most of the " by-
laws and orders " were passed in 1643 and a few of a later date in
1660.
" Ordered : That all town streets be four rods wide, three rods to
be kept clear of impediments, on a penalty of 58. Ordered : That
no person in the town shall fall, lop, bark, or girdle any tree on
north or northwest side of any house or house-lot in the town within
eighty rods thereof, upon the penalty of 5s. for every tree. Ordered :
All persons appointed by overseers for town day work shall be
ready at seven o'clock in the morning. In case of failure he shall
pay 3d. an hour for lost time. Ten acres of land granted, for
encouragement towards building a grist mill."
A fulling mill was built about 1643. A plain meeting house was
erected and church was organized the 3d of December, 1639.
GENEALOGY. 13
(Hist. Essex, 356.) The earliest mention of a meeting house bell
was in 1658, and this bell was suspended from a frame near the
meeting house. (Gage, 17.) And for sweeping the meeting house
and for ringing of the bell, was granted a yearly appropriation of
£2.10s.
The earliest mention of a school was February 3, 1656-7, when
William Boynton was engaged as a teacher for the term of seven
years. He taught about twenty-four years. (Hist. Essex.) The
earliest tax list preserved bears the date "ye 9th of June, 1691";
the first recorded marriage, 1639. The first physician in the town
was in 1652. In 1680 there were one hundred and twenty-nine
families in town. (Nason.) The town records are very full and
complete. Not a leaf is missing from the books containing the
entries of births, marriages, and deaths. (Hist. Essex Co.)
From the beginning, Rowley was a manufacturing as well as a
farming town. Many of the first settlers were weavers, and, in
connection with the fulling mill, the production of cloth was long
a profitable industry. As early as 1680, stip-building was carried
on at the warehouse landing.
About 1813, Capt. Perley built a vessel of ninety tons' measure-
ment, on Rowley Common, one mile and a half from the river.
This ship was named "Country's Wonder," and was drawn to
the river, in one day, by more than one hundred yoke of oxen.
At the head of the warehouse road, the teamsters stopped for luncl\
and Capt. Perley emptied a barrel of old Jamaica rum into the
Saunders well, that all might drink. (Blodgette.)

1681, 1698, constable, and in 1670 fence viewer (Gage). The town
was first called Bradford in 1672 ; in 1677 John Tenney served on
the school committee.
In 1682 John Tenney was one of the 18 who formed the first
church under Rev. Zachariah Symmes (Gage, 107). His name
appears first in the list of deacons, chosen 13 Dec, 1702; in 1670,
sent to attend the ordination at Amesbury, Mass. ; in 1698, appointed
to settle the boundary between Bradford and Rowley.
He was in 1701 chairman of the committee of the proprietors of
Bradford, to adjust the claims of the heirs of Musquonomonit alias
Masehonnomet, Indian Sagamore of Agawam (Gage, 373-77).
As early as 12 December, 1682, at "a private Fast held at the
house of Brother John Tenney," an instrument was drawn prepar-
atory to the gathering of a church, and from time to time brothers
were nominated to provide elements for the Lord's Supi)er. IVlr.
Tenney served on a committee "for ye good of ye town as to
settling ye Reverend Zachariah Symmes, and for the further carry-
ing on the affairs of this town for a settlement of all ye ordinances
of God in thb place." (Chm-ch Manual.) Voted by the town,
28 June, 1705, that Captain David Haseltine and Ensign John
Tenney go abroad to inquire after assistance in the work of the
ministry. He served on a committee " for ye healing of differences
in ye church," and " votes were overhaled by Brother John Tenney
and Brother John Kimball." Again the 16 August, 1706, he was
chosen " to treat with the Rev. Mr. Symmes to see what he would
abate of his salary." Deacon Tenney was one of " a committee of
three to manage that affaii- of calling a council, 4 November, 1707."
Voted by the town, 14 June, 1708, that Deacon Tenney, with the
GENEALOGY. 15
other two deacons, " go and invite the Rev. Mr. Thomas Symmes to
come and preach." From this date, his name disappears from
church committees.

of £50 from John Tenney of Rowley, deeded one hundred acres in
Merrimack land southeast of Merrimack river, also four acres of
meadow in Crane meadow, etc., the 20 May, 1664. (Ipswich. Deeds,

GENEALOGY. 73
hall and staircase ; to our sorrow it is now owned out of the family.
(Hannah Hills.) The following is from a diary of his youngest daugh-
ter, Sophia (Tenney) Ordway : " Father was a fine singer, as were his
children, eight of whom were singers of the choir at one time."
He had a room in his house fitted for singing and instruction 9
being anxious to educate his children he organized a school in said
room, and fitted his son for Bradford academy. In 1775 he
marched to Bunker Hill in charge of the baggage and provision
wagon, under Capt Nathaniel Gage. He was chosen deacon of
Rev. Mr. Tappan's church in 1783, retiring from active service in
1811; he was followed by the same name, there being a Deacon
Tenney in this church for a period of 109 years. " Father surely
left a goodly inheritance to his children."
In 1801 the church voted that Deacon Tenney be one of the
deacons to read during the intermission from the following authors :
Dodridge, Wadsworth, Da vies. Walker, and Erskine. In 1804 he
was one of a committee to survey the first parish for the most con-
venient spot to build a meeting-house, taking into view all the difli-
cnlties in the various parts of the parish. (Church Record.) On
the 10 April, 1805, he was chosen to provide for the Lord's table ;
the child daughter was impressed by the mother's assistance in

out of the Revolutionary war he mounted his horse and rode to the
vicinity of Boston, arriving in season to assist in dressing the
wounds of the injured at the battle of Bunker Hill. He served
through the war as surgeon, one year in a Massachusetts regiment,
afterward in the Rhode Island line. He was present at the sur-
render of Burgoyne and of Comwallis. He volunteered for the
defence of Red Bank on the Delaware, himself using a musket, and
dressed the wounds of Count Donop, who was mortally wounded.
The Count delivered to him his pocket-book, remarking that he
looked like an honest man. He returned to Exeter, though he did
not resume professional practice. He had a strong inclination
toward political life, and was a member of the convention for form-
ing the Constitution of New Hampshire in 1791. In 1798 he was
appointed judge of probate, which office he held until 1800, when
he was elected a member of Congress, and in the town of Hancock,

He was a member of several literary, historical, and scientific
societies; to which he contributed articles for their publication. For
the Massachusetts Agricultural Society he wrote a much-approved
treatise on orcharding. He also wrote an account of the mineral
water of Saratoga and a theory of prismatic colors. For his scien-
tific description of the Dark Day, the 19th of May, 1780, see Mass.

Mr. Tenney removed from Rowley soon after April, 1793, to
Topsfield, Mass., and. about the year 1805, to St. Albans, Me. He
had a great fondness for intellectual pursuits, and was desirous to
obtain an education for the Christian ministry, but in this he was
strongly opposed. This was to him a sore trial, of which he was
accustomed, in after life, to speak with deep regret Though he
became a farmer, he was a thorough theologian, and but few, even
among ministers, were so discriininating in this direction as he. He
was not a cold speculator, but used the great doctrines of the Bible
as a foundation for Christian experience and practice. He was very
faithful in the religious training of his children, all of whom " be-
came soundly oi-thodox, not only in head but in heart." (Rev.
Samuel G. Tenney (YI). Mr. Tenney died 4 Sept, 1837. Chil-

three men who rode across a room on a meal-chest propelled by
invisible power. In 1780, Hannah Hazen, a native, was annoyed in
her weaving by strange sounds from the walls answering each
stroke of the lathe. Unable to account for this, Hannah was set
to sifting meal, but she or her clothes had no sooner touched the
meal-chest than it began to move by jogs of one or two inches so
long as she kept at work. Other articles, to a heavy work-bench,
would move from her. Twenty witnesses, who had seen the loaded
meal-chest move and begin to turn the comer, were not to be put
down by a theory, even by two clergymen. The girl was sent
away, and the law of gravitation restored." (Hist, of Essex.)

TRUTHS THAT HAVE COME TO STAY.
Any theory that divides mankind into contending sects and fac-
tions is based on false premises. That belief in a supreme being, or
its equivalent, the supremacy of spirit over matter, has had this
effect, the history of the human family gives ample evidence.
While mathematics, based on a balance of powers, unite all in a
114 THE TENNEY FAMILY.
harmonioos whole, metaphysics, based on belief in supreme power,
divide all into contending sects and factions, and to this role there
are no exceptions. The simple fact that the two conditions in which
everything exists, whether called God and nature, spirit and matter,
male and female, or by any name used to designate opposites, are
interchanging relations, positive and negative conditions of the same
thing, is as evident as that night and day are interchanging. That
all vegetables are sexual, the tops and roots interchanging and bear-
ing the same relation to each other as males and females in the ani-
mal, and making a counterpart to us invisible, as necessary to animal
life as the top is to the roots of the vegetable.
Every organic form, whether worlds or their constituent parts,
hafl its starting point in a central germ, and that germ the product
of sexual union, or its equivalent. The wave of being that now
constitutes the human family was evolved from the central germ of
our planet, has passed through and in turn represented all the con-
ditions of being that are following it, a &ct fully demonstrated in
waves of growth in all vegetable life.
Interchange of' sex vs. the supremacy of one over the other, as
demonstrated in the roots and tops of all vegetable, is as sure to
revolutionize public opinion in the not distant future as was the dis-
covery that worlds are revolving spheres instead of being flat and
stationary.

Samuel Tbnney, bom on the ancestral estate in Rowley, Mass.,
1 Sept., 1787, son of Enoch and Jane (Searle); married 5 Nov.,
1809, Sally Stickney of Hallowell, Me. He settled early in 1800 at
Hallowell, and was by trade a shoemaker. Having a scientific
mind, he studied chemistry, became proficient, and discontinuing
the shoe business, he opened a drug store. In 1817 delivered a
course of scientific lectures with marvelous illustrations. Editor
D. P. Livermore of Hallowell, in 1889, writes : " I saw, m 1817, Mr.
Tenney produce a light identical with what is now called * electric
light,' the power from a battery of his own construction composed
of zinc and copper. The wires were brought to the table, and the
connecting points were of charcoal whittled to a point ; and when
brought to the right distance by holding each point in either hand,
produced a light so dazzling in the room that it could be sustained
only a moment. It was at the same course of lectures that he pro-
duced the gas light, at that time but little known in this country.
All apparatus was of his own construction, and the * air pump ' I
flaw a year or two ago. Mr. Tenney was a man of irreproachable
character, also chorister of the Congregational Church choir." He
died 12 Mch., 1830. She was bom 6 June, 1790; died 5 Sept.,

Judge John Seable Tbnney, bom on the ancestral estate in
Kowley, Mass^ 1 Jan., 1793, son of Enoch and Jane (Searle); mar-
ried in Ipswich, Mass^ in Feb^ 1831, Hannah Dennis, who was
bom in 1793 ; died 20 Sept^ 1876. Residence, Norridgewock, Me.
He fitted for college at Dmnmer Academy, graduated from Bowdoin
College in 1816 ; judge of the Supreme Judicial Court. Few men
in the state were better known or more respected ; a man of noble
presence, of great force of character and mental power, delicate sen-
sibilities, and associated with enterprises. In stature six feet and
three inches, his weight was two hundred and fifty pounds. He
was the owner of the ancestral farm in Rowley, Byfield parish,
which comprised over one hundred acres and passed to his daughter.
It has always been occupied by some one of the name, with one
exception, when sold, but soon taken back, ^^ being homesick." The
present house is the third built, and is about one hundred and fifty
years old, and erected by Nathaniel Tenney, of the fourth genera-
tion. It is two-storied, with front door in the middle, and com-
prises thirteen rooms, with generous halls and closets, also two
chimneys in the main part. An extra L has been added for the use
of a second family, and the well is equally distant from rear doors.
Two buildings are used for carriage-house and shed ; a nice new bam
on the opposite side of the highway is within convenient distance.
One half of the house is occupied by Tenney furniture ; a tall clock
and straight-back chairs which a city cousin might covet. From
the attic, industry and economy could be seen, by loom, flax, and
little wheel and wooden lasts. Shade and fruit trees are without a
trace of a landscape gardener. The neighbors are in sight, and the
farmer is one formerly employed by Judge Tenney.
Since writing the above the farm has been purchased by N. N.
Bummer ; he is of the Tenney blood as was his first wife. In May,
1902, said estate was sold to Mr. Creighton, of Lynn, Mass., for a
summer residence. A part of the house is occupied by the engineer
of the Dummer mills. Judge Tenney died 28 Aug., 1869, and is
buried at Byfield in the family lot which has a large stone monu-
ment. Children :

a representative.
He was a well-known portrait painter. The first thirty-four years
of his life were passed on a farm, and he had no idea of any other
occupation until thirty years of age, when he saw a portrait of
Slafter, which impressed him with a desire to copy. Succeeding,
he sought living subjects which " infatuated " him, and he gave all
leisure time to painting. In the fall of 1844 Francis Alexander of
Boston saw Mr. Tenney's first and later works, encouraged him in
art, and received him for five weeks at his studio in Boston, which
"was time and money well spent." From this all time was devoted
to painting, in Hanover, Lebanon, Manchester, and Concord, X. H.
Dr. Dixi Crosby of the Medical College was the first to patronize
him ; then the Crosby family ; Professor Peabody, a portrait ; Pro-
fessor Young, Professor Brown, and others at Dartmouth College ;
Cecum, the Indian convert, a large-size j)ortrait ; two portraits of
Rev. N. Bouton — one for Dartmouth College, the other for the
library at Concord ; Hon. John P. Hale, given to Exeter Academy
by Dr. Willard ; also a copy of Phillips, the founder of the academy.
United States President Pierce's portrait was pronounced by the
newspapers a success, and a Boston man took a copy, also the Demo-
cratic club at Concord took several copies ; a poor engraving of it
GENEALOGY. 231
may be seen in Hawthorne's " Life of General Pierce." President
Pierce's little son was a favorite portrait ; Col. Mason W. Tappan
of the First X. H. regiment was also painted. Col. Jesse Gove's
portrait hangs in the rotunda of the state house in Concord, in which
building may be seen thirty pictures by this artist, — Governor Berry,
Governor Prescott, Governor Stearns, Gov. X. Baker, Hon. E. H.
Rollins, etc., also copies of colonial dignitaries.
Mr. Tenney " painted in Boston, a little in New York, at Balti-
more, and down the Mississippi river to Mississippi and Arkansas,'*
where he passed a winter four years before the war, painting twenty-
seven portraits. He removed to Winona, Minn., and for his " grati-
fication " has painted from miniature President Lincoln, President
Garfield, President Hayes, Secretary Windom, and A. A. Tenney.
In 1854 he painted, at Newbury, Vt., the portraits of Col. A. B. W.
Tenney and Mrs. Tenney.

Mr. Tenney. The last years of their lives were passed in Oberlin,

thus writes :
254 THE TENNEY FAMILY.
"A female frjend [Nancy Ilaseltine, afterward Mrs. Judson] called
upon us this morning. She informed me of her determination to
quit her native land forever, to endure the sufferings of a Christian
amongst heathen nations, to 8j)end her days in India's sultry clime.
How did the news affect my heart ! Is she willing to do all this for
<Tod ; and shall I refuse to lend my little aid, in a land where divine
revelation has shed ite brightest rays V I have felt more for the sal-
vation of the heathen this day than I recollect to have felt through
my whole past life."
A few days later : " Oct., 23 Mr. M. introduced Mr. Newell to our
family. He appears to be an engaged Christian ; expects to spend
his life in preaching a Saviour to the benighted pagans."
In the following April Miss Atwood received a formal proposal
from Mr. Newell to become his wife. The letter called for an imme-
diate answer. She was then in Boston, but hastened home to ask a
mother's advice. With tears Mrs. Atwood said : "If a conviction of
duty, and love to the souls of the perishing heathen, lead you to
India, as much as I love you, Harriet, I can only say. Go."
Ten days after their marriage they sailed from Salem, Mass., in
the Caravan^ for Calcutta, arriving 17 June, 1812. They found the
East India Company violently opposed to missions, and within a
short month were "ordered by the government to leave immedi-
ately." The captain of the Caravan was refused a home clearance
imless he took the missionaries with him. Finally they obtained
liberty to go to the Isle of France, and the 31st of October they
anchored at Port Louis, where they rented a house.
" Oh, Memory's pencil- trace!
Behold sweet Harriet Newell 's pensive face
From out the background of the past arise,
Her young life beautiful in sacrifice! **
The name of Harriet Newell is as widely known and revered as
any modern female. She was a heroine far above ordinary hero-
ines. (Book Note.)
The day before her death she partook of the s}Tnbols of the sac-
rament, and then uttered these w ords : " I have had it in my heart
to do what I can for the heathen, and I hope God will accept me."
She died Monday, 30 Nov., 1812. A little daughter, "Harriet,"
four days old, died a little before the mother. A marble monument
has been erected over the grave of Mra. Newell at Port Louis by the
A. B. C. F. M. Rev. Samuel Newell died at Bombay in May, 1821.

When the tempest seemeth long,
We will raise the cheerful song ;
Life is only a little time,
And to live here is sublime.
Faint not pilgrim, One is good,
Though by man not understood.
He would draw a path and say,
This is only Gfod*s own way.
Let them prate, but we will go
Forward, and when we shall know.
As the dear ones knoweth now,
We with them will meekly bow.
I have seen the loved ones die,
They spoke truth, and He was nigh.
Are we not our Father*8 own,
Will He harm or leave us *lone ?
No, dear pilgrim, stay on Him,
Though the earthly eyes are dim ;
The fond spirit sees the light
Breaking through the shades of night.

408 THE TENNEY FAMILY.
In one of Mr. Tenney's European visits, in 1859, he made an effort
to trace our family name, and, if possible, obtain the record of the
clearance of the vessel that brought our ancestors to this country,
but failed to find trace in the advertising office at Hull.
Mr. Tenney found the sheriff at East Riding, Yorkshire, England,
to be a Tenney by name — a most agreeable an& cultivated gentleman
— who informed him that the family tradition b that we are of Nor-
man origin.
The churchyard in the county town of Lincoln county bears the
name of the family far back to the middle of the fourteenth century
upon the headstones in that old cemetery. The Normans are char-
acterized as the intellectual as well as the physical aristocracy of
modem Europe, and it is this resistless energy, in the face of all op-
position, combined with intellectual grasp, that has given to America
the name of the young Norman nation.
He died at his Brooklyn home Saturday in his eighty-eighth year
(1903). Children:
4812 Maria Antoinette, b. 18 Apr., 1843; d. Aug., 1864.

In 1836 he left his home to carve his destiny, and in 1846 was a
bookkeeper in Charlestown, Mass. He enlisted in the First Massa-
chusetts regiment for the Mexican war, with Col. Caleb C. Cushing
and Capt. Edward Webster (a son of Hon. Daniel Webster) . They
received the name of " Bunker Hill Boys," and sailed from Boston
23 Feb., 1847, and encountered a nine days' storm, never seeing the
sun or being able to get the ship's reckoning.
Many trying and varied changes came to Lieut. Tenney's army
life, yet he met and filled every demand in a spirit of patriotism,
acting as lieutenant, quartermaster, interpreter, and one of a com-
mittee of four to meet Gen. Taylor. He marched over 4,000 miles
in Mexico, and rose from a private to the rank of lieutenant.
428 THE TENNEY FAMILY.
•
In 1848 he was stricken with yellow fever, and was in the post
hospital at the time peace was declared, but was kindly removed to
the home of one whose life he had saved, and in due time returned
to his home in New Hampshire.
In 1857 he settled at Lacrosse, Wis., and retired from the hard-
ware business in 1877. At the organization of the Universalist
Church society in 1860 he was elected secretary, in 1865 president,
and treasurer many years. Mrs. Tenney is the church treasurer.
Mr. Tenney was a well-known writer of poetry, under the name of
"Fuller," author of "Midsummer Night," "Easter," "The Crocus,"
" Vbion," " Candlemas Day," " Hallowe'en," "Friendship," "Float-
ing Sands," "Who will Lead Me to the River," "Memory," "Sixty-
five," and a volume of others. He was eagerly solicited as a local and
tourist correspondent. To us he is known as the discoverer of the
Tenney coat of arms and the owner of its electrotype.
He died 16 Aug., 1895, of valvular heart disease. No children.
For his picture see the first edition of the Tenney Family Book
(1891).
I have reached the summit — am over the Great Divide,
And am whirling down the steep on the other side ;
Have passed the threescore, and added the other two,
But cannot turn the brakes, all that I can do.

making faculty, an excellent wife and mother, with unceasing cheer-
ing power over all ; noted for hospitality and keen wit. She died at
New Orleans, La., 15 Feb., 1895, after a brief illness of four days from
la grippe, having left home on a visit through the south, anticipating
pleasure when suddenly called to a higher experience. Her picture
is in the first edition of the "Tenney Family"; also the pictures of

R. I., son of Gorham Thurber, one of the founders of the Gorham
Manufacturing Co. She completed her art studies in Paris as pupil
of Jean Paul Laurens and Benjamin Constant, 1897-98; specialty,
portraiture ; her works on view from time to time at principal salons
and exhibitions of Paris, London, New York, Philadelphia, and
Chicago. Among her patrons in Europe are M. Emile Ollivier,
j)resident of the French Academy, and the Duchess of Sutherland.
Since returning to America in 1901 she has been kept busy exe-
cuting commissions for prominent people East and West, including
a full-length portrait of Lieutenant-General ^liles, now in the Cor-
coran gallery at Washington, D. C, and portraits, officially ordered,
of the presidents of Mt. Ilolyoke and Western Colleges and the
dean of Oberlin ; the portrait of the mayor of Providence, ordered
by the city, and one of the governor of Rhode Island, ordered by
the legislature for the state house.
A competent critic says of Mrs. Thurber's work : " Her portraits
GENEALOGY. 691
are not less notable and meritorious as works of art than as speak-
ing likenesses and character studies of her subjects, a combination
which places her distinctly in the front rank of American portrait
[)ainters. Mrs. Thurber's power, both intuitive and cultivated, of
interpreting her sitter — his personality, his mental attitude, and his
])a88ing moods — is singularly complete in its development and
unerring in its application. This, coupled with an equally happy
faculty of catching and fixing on canvas the facial expression of the
sitter at his best [to which every subject is entitled at the hands of
his chosen artist], largely accounts for the swift and distinguishefd
success of this artist.
" She finds particular pleasure in the painting of children, and
shows her love for this branch of her art in the simplicity, vivacity,
and naturalness characteristic of her portraits of these uneasy little
subjects." Residence, Bristol, R. I. Children :

halfe a gate purchased of the town, two gates . . 2 Gates.
Purchased of ^Ir. Edward Carlton that he had of the
town for consideration of money lent ... 1 Gate.
William and Thomas Tenney purchased of Mr. Phillip

The acre and a half house-lot in the second divbion was between
the lots of Mark Prime, on the north, and Thomas Miller, on the
south, with the east end on the street. (Blodgette.) Mention of
this follows.
William Tenney was ordained deacon of the church in Rowley,
3 Feb., 1 067-6)^, and held that office until his death. History refers
to various offices of trust which he successfully filled, and the faith-
ful work rendered.
His wife was Katherine ( ). In consideration of the mar-
riage of his daughter, Mary Tenney, w^ith Thomas West of Salem,
3Iass., to said West, William Tenney gives deed of sixty-seven
acres of land in Rowley Village, now Boxford, 3Iass. Dated 31
Jan., 1677. (Ipswich Deeds, 4: 267.) Two days before his death
he and wife Katherine of Rowley transfer for £39 to Humphrey

trix, acknowledged the deed 7 May, 1686.
Deacon Tenney died 5 Aug., 1685. "Being weake of body," his
will was dated 3 Aug., 1685; proved 29 Sept., 1685. To wife
(unnamed), for her lifetime, he gave his house, bam, and house-lot,
and some other lands. To three sons-in-law, and four daughters,
Elizabeth, Mary, Ruth, and Sarah, also nephew, Samuel Tenney
APPENTDIX. 627

end.

due to the estate, £1.14s.8d.; debts due from estate, £18.17s. For
Katherine Tenney's agreement with John West of Ipswich as to
that portion of the estate which West was to receive with his wife
Sarah, daughter to said Katherine, see Essex Deeds, 13 : 24. Dated
30 Aug., 1688.
Also, Katherine, widow of WilHam Tenney of Rowley, deceased
(she a resident in Bradford), as executrix of her husband's will, to
her son-in-law, Thomas West of Bradford, for her support, transfers
five acres in Rowley, 25 Oct., 1691. (Ipswich Deeds, 5:435.)
Katherine Tenney, widow, of Bradford, by power of her husband's
will, for her support, for £4 conveys to Rev. Edward Payson of
Rowley two freeholds in Rowley, 9 May, 1698. (Essex Deeds,
14 : 136.) By power of the wiQ of William Tenney, deceased,
widow Katherine, for £23, conveys to James Bayley and Samuel
Prime, both of Rowley, one and one-half acre in Rowley, on Town
street, house-lot where her late husband dwelt, and bounded " on ye
East end on ye Towne Street, on ye North side on land of ye said
